South Bend Clutch has been manufacturing performance and street clutches for 40+ years. This dedication to product specialization makes today's South Bend products incredibly refined. Three stages & driving styles are accommodated for, allowing you to carefully choose the exact clutch for your needs.

Many enthusiasts, however, ignore the issue of disadvantageous suspension geometry changes that result from a lower ride height. Chief among these harmful effects are unwanted changes in camber angle. In order to maintain a consistent, performance-enhancing tire contact patch, the ability to control the camber angle is critical. SPC Upper Control Arms allow for +/-1.5° Camber and/or Caster change for your B8 S5. Street & track enthusiasts will appreciate this needed measure of adjustability.

An exceptionally clever method of servicing your B6 Passat's transmission fluid, the air compressor-assisted Schwaben DSG/6-spd Auto Transmission Service Tool makes the job easy, clean, & fast. Instead of relying on gravity to slowly fill your transmission with fluid, the Schwaben tool connects to a standard transmission fluid bottle & pressurizes it with an air compressor, quickly forcing the fluid into the transmission. A blow molded case conveniently stores the DSG and Tiptronic filler adapters, screw cap bottle adapter, quick-fill valve and 5 ft. of clear hose with clamps.

The E60 5 Series represented a distinct departure from many traditional BMW design and engineering values, drawing simultaneous controversy and praise from owners and critics alike. Much of the change, however, was indisputably innovative and technologically superior. The throws on this generation's manual transmission, for example, are shorter and more accurate - a welcomed improvement over the outgoing E39's shifter feel. ECS has assembled a complete Short Shift Kit, including the perfectly weighted ZHP 6-speed shift knob and an ECS-engineered Teflon shifter bushing.

Tire pressure monitoring is a convenient feature - when it's working properly. Too often, when the tire pressure light illuminates in your MINI, the cause has nothing to do with the pressure inside your tire.

After installation, simply navigate to the TPM screen to clear the light from your dash. Also great as a set of four when upgrading or changing to new wheels.

The first operation a car's computer does when you turn the key is determine the position of the crankshaft. Ignition cannot take place without an understanding of where the valvetrain and pistons are at in their cycle - information the crankshaft provides. When an engine struggles or fails to start, or when it feels down on power or responsiveness, the cause is oftentimes a failing crankshaft position sensor (CPS). ECS offers several options to solve this highly disruptive but simple problem.

ECS Exact-Fit stainless steel reinforced brake lines provide more confident and dependable stopping by maintaining consistent brake pressure, long lasting corrosion resistance, and increased protection from failure. Even when new, factory style fabric mesh lined rubber hoses are prone to expansion under the pressure of hard braking, whether it be highway panic stops or threshold braking at the track. Our lines are braided with stainless steel mesh, affording expansion resistance. This resistance to expansion creates a firmer pedal, and more direct pedal feel.

Over time your wipers start moving slower and start to skip until the linkage freezes up. Occasionally, simply replacing wiper blades is not enough to keep your windshield reliably clean. If the transmission or linkage is damaged, your wiper action may slow or begin skipping, until eventually the motor spins freely, ceasing wiper arm movement entirely. Changing the windshield wiper transmission allows for a secure connection between the motor and wipers, giving you peace of mind that your Audi is safe and reliable.

Located in the wheel hub, brake drum, or rotor itself, wheel bearings support the full weight of the vehicle while allowing the wheels to rotate smoothly within a steel enclosure. Dysfunctional bearings are simply the result of the rigors of daily driving, and should be replaced at the first sign of failure. Worn bearing symptoms range from loud noises emanating from the wheel hubs to general rough ride characteristics. ECS offers front & rear Wheel Bearing Kits for your Audi 8P A3 FWD.
